For some of you who have followed my progress on my heads, thanks for all the help. I am sure I will need your help next year when I decide to spend more money on it.
Friday night I took my SC with the new heads and cam from Steig, and the car ran like a bat out of hell. But I had some problems due to the need of A chip. Well yesterday morning at around 8:30am on my way to get an aligment, the car stalled and I got stranded on the side of the road, this time the starter did not crank the engine. As I opened the hood I feared the worst, I opened the oil filler cap to find steam and smoke jetting out, on the cap white sludge covered the cap. There I wait for the Tow truck who was very rude and looked at me like an idiot for having a lowered car. Anyway late last nite after work I decided to crank the engine with a wrench at the crank, and to fing out that the engine is locked up and seized.
The only satisfaction I got with the new heads was humiliating this guy in a new 03 V6 Accord Coupe. I smoked him bad.
Well in the next few months I think Ill just chill with this thing. I am in debt about $8,000 all because of the car, mind you the car is payed for.
I hope to make SC events next year but who knows, I might not, Ill take any ideas on making a nice strong short block, although I might get a reman from ford, I work for them so I get the cool 10 over discount. BUt this wont happen till next year.
